Lord of the Time: I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

It was as if they were in their respective homes, constantly laughing and talking with each other.

"Say, Arnold, those damned scouts will recruit a bunch of brats again this year, right? Poor boys... They thought it was a sign of honor, but they were just sending themselves to death. I don\'t know what they are thinking. Such fools...

"Bastard Chris, fucking lower your voice. If someone hears us, you\'ll get executed, you know? Don\'t badmouth the scouts. Are you jealous because they receive greater glory from the citizens than us? At least we have a real power than them inside the city, you know?"

"Well, don\'t mind me. I\'m just babbling..." The one named Chris chuckled. He has dark orange hair, blue eyes, and tanned skin. He was wearing a thick brown leather with a red crest which had a shield designed on its middle. In his baggy pants, there is a holster and a black gun. "Actually, I know that they are contributing to our city with the information outside. Without them, the outside would have been littered by Apokalips by now."

"That\'s right. Still, the mortality rate of the Scout is really terrifying. It was said that only the 3rd Seat Officer and 4th Seat Officer survived the last expedition. A lot of families grieved. It\'s quite a sad event."

Chris sighed hearing Arnold\'s words and took a sip of coffee. "If the 1st Seat Captain Hezi joined the expedition, that would have happened. And why did they choose the Mist to explore in the first place? That place is a hundred times more dangerous than Spider Town, right?"

Arnold nodded.

"Yes..."

Just as the two guards were about to doze off due to boredom and lack of a topic to talk about. A level 2 alarm sounded on the wall. Chris and Arnold stood up and looked alertly around.

"Warning! The Spider Queen is coming! The Spider Queen from Spider Town is coming! I repeat. The Spider Queen from Spider Town is coming! She has thousands of spider minions with her!! Constables of 9th seats should stand on guard and protect the citizens. While Constables of 8th Seats would deal with the Spider Queen and her army! I repeat..."

"This is bad!" Chris gulped. As if to prove the speaker\'s announcement. He saw thousands of dots and a freak of a nature giant spider in the distance 20 meters away from them. "I\'ll be damned! It\'s really the Spider Queen!! What happened? Isn\'t it dormant? Why did it take the initiative to leave its territory and cause trouble now!?"

"Don\'t tell me it\'s the 4th invasion? No, that\'s not right. Their numbers are too small for an invasion." Suddenly Arnold\'s eyes widened at this time. "Am I imagining? Or are there human silhouettes running away from the Spiders? Damn, there are really! And there are also kids!"

"Huh? What the fuck are those eight people doing outside? Did these people sneak out? Fucking shit! It seems they\'re the ones that disturbed the territories of spiders!" Chris was stunned as he thought of this. He couldn\'t help but feel amazed at how the eight people managed to survive but also felt fear at the massive horde of spiders and the colossus spider queen.

Just like that, the guards finally saw the eight silhouettes as they got closer to the gate. They were running barefoot towards them, their breathing labored.

"Wait, there\'s something wrong..." Chris\'s eyes squinted. He felt suspicious about how the eight managed to cover such a huge distance while just running. However, he could see that their speed was just normal.

What he didn\'t know. Caleb canceled his gum gum rubber substance. After all, he didn\'t want to reveal his ability to the City until he became a Destiny.

...

On top of the wall, four men stood upright, gazing at the army of spiders and the Spider Queen with an expression of dread. They are the Four 8th Seat Constables tasked to defend the wall against the Spider Queen.

The four were wearing hoods with black and blue color pattern and gun crest on their back

As Tier 8 Destinies, they are confident in their strength and that they could hold back the horde on their own. Still, a battle in their realm of strength is never easy.

Fighting a high-level Apokalips isn\'t something they want. After all, death and injuries are the only result of that.

"I didn\'t expect Tier 8 Apokalip to invade at this moment." One of the four, a man with a long gray beard, said. He has a chiseled jaw, positive canthal tilt, defined cheeks, and a burly body.

"Gray, we don\'t need to fight the queen. It seems it wasn\'t planning to invade. Look, eight people are being chased by the queen." A blue-haired man with a magnetic eye area and good facial harmony spoke. He has clear, white skin and looks like an aristocrat.

Gray rubbed his long gray beard. He looked at Caleb, Jin, and the rest. "Interesting... These guys are survivors. They do not come from our city."

"It\'s been a while since I saw people outside. These ones must be strong that they\'ve managed to survive for such a long time." a black-skinned man with an X mark on his left cheek grinned and licked his lips. His brown eyes directed at the spider queen, exuding blood thirst. He has a pair of gauntlets on his arms.

"Hmm... They would just take refuge. If they are strong, then that would be good for our city. Still, how should we deal with these?"

Gray has a ponderous expression as he looks at Caleb\'s group to reach the guards below. He smiled and said:

"Don\'t show fear. I don\'t think these Apokalip would be stupid enough to face four of us."
